1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

objectiveOvarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS) is a side effect of the exogenous human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) hormones used to trigger oocyte maturation. High ovarian responders represent a population with a higher risk of OHSS and are characterized by an exaggerated response to gonadotropin administration. In this study, we compared clinical pregnancy and incidence of OHSS in high ovarian responders receiving different doses of hCG supplementation in a GnRH-agonist trigger protocol.

methodsA total of 205 high ovarian responders who were to undergo in vitro fertilization (IVF)/intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) cycles were recruited and randomly assigned to receive different doses of hCG supplementation in a GnRH-agonist trigger protocol: GnRH-a (

resultsThe GnRH-a + 1000 IU hCG, GnRH-a + 2000 IU hCG, and GnRH-a + 3000 IU hCG groups had more oocytes retrieved, embryos, high-quality embryos, and a higher rate of high-quality embryos than the GnRH-a group (

conclusionBased on the data obtained from this prospective study, we recommend 1000 IU hCG supplementation in a GnRH-agonist trigger protocol for high ovarian responders during IVF/ICSI cycles considering a higher rate of high-quality embryos, a lower incidence rate of moderate and severe OHSS, and a lower abortion rate.
